hey, I was trying to run my Jetson with a Jetpack trying to flash it on a 128Gb SD card, but unfortunetly I was unable to do that. Latest Jetpack kinda work (?), at least it looks in that way, because its running out until it realizing that the board is wrong. Older versions of a software are not running at all. I was trying with a both versions dedicated by a links to a Orin Nano, but it doesnt work, I even tried to force Jetson to run on a recovery mode, but it also failed, so I am lost. I dont know really what to do next, maybe somoen have a step by step guidence which i can follow, I will be really thankfull if someone deos :)

It seems like you’re experiencing issues with flashing your Jetson Orin Nano with Jetpack on a 128GB SD card. I’ll provide a step-by-step guide to help you troubleshoot and potentially resolve the issue.
Step 1: Verify the SD Card
Ensure that your 128GB SD card is compatible with your Jetson Orin Nano. Check the SD card’s specifications to confirm it meets the requirements for your device.
Step 2: Check the Jetpack Version
You mentioned that the latest Jetpack version seems to work partially, but older versions don’t work at all. Try to identify the exact version of Jetpack that you’re using and check if it’s compatible with your Jetson Orin Nano.
Step 3: Verify the Recovery Mode
You mentioned that you tried to force the Jetson to run in recovery mode, but it failed. To confirm, follow these steps to put your Jetson Orin Nano into recovery mode:
- Connect your Jetson Orin Nano to your host computer using a USB cable.
- Open a terminal window on your host computer and enter the command
lsusb. This will help you identify the Jetson device. - If the Jetson device is in recovery mode, you should see a message indicating that it’s in Force Recovery Mode. The message should resemble this:
Bus <bbb> Device <ddd>: ID 0955: <nnnn> Nvidia Corp.
Replace <bbb>, <ddd>, and <nnnn> with the actual values displayed in the terminal.
Step 4: Flash the Jetson Orin Nano
If your Jetson Orin Nano is in recovery mode, try flashing it using the following command:
$ sudo ./flash.sh -u <pkc_keyfile> [-v <sbk_keyfile>] <target_config> internal
Replace <pkc_keyfile>, <sbk_keyfile>, and <target_config> with the actual values required for your Jetson Orin Nano.
Step 5: Troubleshoot the Issue
If you’re still experiencing issues, try to identify the exact error message or behavior that’s preventing the flashing process from completing. This will help you narrow down the potential causes and find a solution.
Comparison with Other Jetson Devices
If you’re experiencing issues with your Jetson Orin Nano, it might be helpful to compare the flashing process with other Jetson devices, such as the Jetson AGX Orin or Jetson Xavier NX. You can refer to the documentation for these devices to see if there are any differences in the flashing process that might be relevant to your issue.
Additional Resources
If you’re still having trouble, you can refer to the following resources for additional guidance:
- Jetson Linux Developer Guide: This guide provides detailed information on the Jetson Linux software architecture, boot architecture, and software features.
- Debugging on Jetson Platforms: This guide provides information on debugging techniques and tools for Jetson platforms.
- Jetson EEPROM Layout: This guide provides information on the EEPROM layout for Jetson devices.
I hope this step-by-step guide helps you troubleshoot and resolve the issue with flashing your Jetson Orin Nano. If you have any further questions or need additional guidance, feel free to ask.

What to point out one point here that recovery mode is not a mode that will make thing recover…
It is just a mode that you could flash your board from other host PC.
So after you put your board into recovery mode, you should connect it to another x86 host PC and flash your board with tools like sdkmanager or manual flash command. If you just put board into recovery mode and do nothing, then there won’t be anything happened.
